Preparation of Compounds

[0571] Several methods for preparing the compounds of this disclosure are described in the following schemes. Starting materials and intermediates are purchased, made from known procedures, or prepared as otherwise illustrated. In some cases, the order of carrying out the steps of reaction schemes may be varied to facilitate the reaction or to avoid unwanted reactions. The R groups and other variables in the Schemes correspond to those defined in Formula (I).

##STR00062## ##STR00063##

[0572] Scheme-1: A compound of Formula (I) as disclosed herein can be synthesised as outlined in Scheme-1. In step A, an appropriate halogenated heteroaromatic (1) such as 3-iodo-5-methyl-1H-pyrazole is alkylated with a suitably functionalized N-protected linker, for example with a tosylate in the presence of a base such as cesium carbonate in a solvent such as DMF to provide the halogenated heteroaromatic compound (2). In step B, compound (2) is reacted with a secondary amine coupling partner in a metal-catalysed carbon-nitrogen cross-coupling reaction in the presence of a palladium catalyst such as tBuXPhos-Pd-G3 or Pd(dba)2 and bis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)(2,6-bis(dimethylamino)-3,6-dimethoxybiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine (CAS: 1810068-30-4) in a solvent such as 1,4-dioxane (or toluene) with a base such as NaOtBu (or Phosphazene P.sub.2-Et) to provide compound (3). In step C, compound (3) is treated with a halogenating agent such as N-iodosuccinimide or N-bromosuccinimide in a solvent such as THF or CH.sub.3CN. In step D, the heteroaromatic substituent is introduced with a palladium cross-coupling reaction, using a suitably functionalized aryl or heteroaryl system, for example an heteroaryl boronate ester in the presence of a palladium catalyst such as RuPhos-Pd-G3/RuPhos or CataCXium-A-Pd-G3 (CAS: 1651823-59-4) in a solvent such as dioxane (or toluene or CPME) with a base such as K.sub.3PO.sub.4 (or KOH) to provide compound (5). Alternatively, compound (5) can also be prepared by performing Step C (with NBS) before Step B and then proceeding as described above. In step E, the protecting groups (PG) are removed under appropriate conditions. For example, the Boc group of compound (5) is removed using conditions known in the art, with an organic acid such as trifluoroacetic acid in a solvent such as dichloromethane or with a mineral acid such as sulfuric acid in a solvent such as 1,4-dioxane to provide compound (6). The heteroaryl introduced in Step D may also contain a protecting group (for example, THP) which is removed in the same reaction under the aforementioned conditions for cleaving the Boc group. In step F, compound (7) may be made by reaction of compound (6) with a compound of Formula (Ic) where X.sup.L is a leaving group, for example halo (such as chloro) in the presence of a suitable base (such as Hunig's base); or where X.sup.L is OH and the reaction is carried out under standard amide bond forming conditions for example in the presence of an amide coupling reagent such as HATU and a suitable base such DIPEA. For example, the acrylamide is introduced by treating compound (6) with acrylic acid in presence of a coupling agent such as propylphosphonic anhydride and a base such as DIPEA in a solvent such as methylene chloride to provide compound (7). Alternatively compound (6) can be treated with acryloyl chloride in the presence of a base such as aqueous sodium bicarbonate in a solvent such as THF. In step G, the mixture of atropisomers is separated using SFC or HPLC conditions with the appropriate column and eluent.

##STR00066## ##STR00067##

[0576] Scheme-3: Scheme-3 provides an alternative method for preparation of a variety of compounds of Formula (Ib) as disclosed herein starting from a common amine compound (1). In one approach, amine (1) is reacted with an activated acid using a coupling reagent such as HATU in presence of base such as DIPEA in an inert solvent such as DMF to form an amide (2). In another approach, amine (1) is coupled to an aldehyde under reductive amination conditions in the presence of a reducing agent such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride. Amine (1) can also be reacted with an alkylating agent such as with (S)-(1,4-dioxan-2-yl)methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate in presence of Et.sub.3N in a solvent such as DMF; with an oxirane in presence of LiClO.sub.4 in DMF; with methyl alpha-bromoisobutyrate in presence of a base such as Cs.sub.2CO.sub.3 in a solvent such as DMF; and with 3-((phenylsulfonyl)methylene)oxetane in a solvent such as MeOH. In those cases where the alkylating agent contains a further reactive group such as an ester or a phenylsulfonyl group, an additional reaction (e.g. ester reduction with LiBH.sub.4 in THF or desulfonylation with magnesium) may be performed before proceeding with Step B. In another approach, arylation of amine (1) in a metal-catalysed carbon-nitrogen cross-coupling reaction in the presence of a palladium catalyst such as Pd(dba).sub.2 and bis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)(2,6-bis(dimethylamino)-3,6-dimethoxybiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine (CAS: 1810068-30-4) in a solvent such as 1,4-dioxane with a base such as NaOtBu to provide compound (2).

Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention can be produced by organic synthesis methods known to one of ordinary skill in the art as shown in the following examples.

[0579] The structures of all final products, intermediates and starting materials are confirmed by standard analytical spectroscopic characteristics, e.g., MS, IR, NMR. The absolute stereochemistry of representative examples of the preferred (most active) atropisomers has been determined by analyses of X-ray crystal structures of complexes in which the respective compounds are bound to the KRasG12C mutant. In all other cases where X-ray structures are not available, the stereochemistry has been assigned by analogy, assuming that, for each pair, the atropoisomer exhibiting the highest activity in the covalent competition assay has the same configuration as observed by X-ray. Where the absolute stereochemistry of the compounds in the Examples is specified, the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system is used for assigning stereochemical descriptors to the examples.

[0580] In embodiments of the invention, compounds of formula (I) have an absolute configuration equivalent to the one depicted for Example 121b. As illustrated below, the absolute stereochemistry is assigned according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rule. In this case, Example 121b (most active atropisomer) has the a(R) configuration and Example 121a (less active atropisomer) the a(S) configuration.

C. for 1 h. The reaction mixture was poured into a sat. aq. NaHCO.sub.3 solution and extracted with EtOAc (3?). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO.sub.4) and concentrated. The crude residue was diluted with THF (100 mL), SiliaMetS?Thiol (1.94 mmol) was added and the mixture swirled for 1 h at 40? C. The mixture was filtered, washed through with THF and the filtrate was concentrated. The crude residue was purified by normal phase chromatography (eluent: 8/2 MTBE/iPrOH in heptane 0 to 53%) to give the title compound as a beige foam. UPLC-MS-1a: Rt=1.41 min; MS m/z [M+H]+ 730.6.

Step 2: Tert-butyl 6-(3-(4-acetyl-2,2-dimethylpiperazin-1-yl)-4-(5,6-dimethyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-2-azaspiro[3.3]heptane-2-carboxylate

[0731] A mixture of tert-butyl 6-(3-(4-acetyl-2,2-dimethylpiperazin-1-yl)-4-(5,6-dimethyl-1-tosyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-2-azaspiro[3.3]heptane-2-carboxylate (Step 1, 2.59 g, 3.55 mmol), NaOH (2N aq., 8.87 mL, 17.7 mmol) and dioxane (35 mL) was stirred at 60? C. for 4 h and then at 75? C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT, diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc (2?). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (Na.sub.2SO.sub.4) and concentrated. The isomers were separated by chiral SFC (C-SFC-4; mobile phase: 35:65 IPA/CO.sub.2) to give the title compound as the second eluting peak: UPLC-MS-1a: Rt=1.18 min; MS m/z [M+H].sup.+ 576.5; C-SFC-3 (mobile phase: 35:65 IPA/CO.sub.2): Rt=2.58 min. The other isomer was obtained as the first eluting peak: C-SFC-3 (mobile phase: 35:65 IPA/CO.sub.2): Rt=1.01 min.

The reaction mixture was poured into a mixture of sat. aq. NaHCO.sub.3 and EtOAc, stirred for 15 min, saturated with NaCl and then the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (4?). The combined organic layers were dried (Na.sub.2SO.sub.4) and concentrated to give the title compound as a yellow foam which was used without purification in the next step. UPLC-MS-1a: Rt=0.68 min; MS m/z [M+H].sup.+ 476.4.

Step 4: 1-(6-(3-(4-Acetyl-2,2-dimethylpiperazin-1-yl)-4-(5,6-dimethyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-2-azaspiro[3.3]heptan-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

After 30 min, the reaction mixture was diluted with 1M aq. NaHCO.sub.3 and extracted with EtOAc (2?). The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried (Na.sub.2SO.sub.4) and concentrated. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (20 mL), stirred at 40? C. for 10 min until disappearance (UPLC) of the side product resulting from reaction of the acryloyl chloride with the indazole NH. The mixture was concentrated and the residue was diluted with 1:1 water/brine and extracted with EtOAc (2?). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (Na.sub.2SO.sub.4) and concentrated. The crude residue was purified by normal phase chromatography (eluent: CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2/MeOH/Et.sub.3N/(200:20/2) in CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 from 0 to 100%) to give after lyophilization (from t-BuOH) Example 1a as a white solid: .sup.1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d.sub.6) ? 12.71 (s, 1H), 7.47 (s, 1H), 7.27 (s, 1H), 6.29 (m, 1H), 6.09 (m, 1H), 5.67 (m, 1H), 4.73 (m, 1H), 4.34 (s, 1H), 4.28 (s, 1H), 4.05 (s, 1H), 3.99 (s, 1H), 2.96-3.21 (m, 4H), 2.60-2.83 (m, 6H), 2.38 (s, 3H), 2.10 (s, 3H), 1.92 (s, 6H), 1.00-1.12 (m, 6H); UPLC-MS-1a: Rt=0.93 min; MS m/z [M+H].sup.+ 530.4; C-SFC-3 (mobile phase 45:55 (IPA+0.1% NH.sub.3)/CO.sub.2): Rt=1.85 min.

[0868] A mixture of acrylic acid (0.77 mL, 11.2 mmol), propylphosphonic anhydride (50% in EtOAc, 8.27 mL, 14.0 mmol) and DIPEA (32.7 mL, 187 mmol) in CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 (125 mL) was stirred for 15 min under argon atmosphere and added to an ice-cooled solution of (R)-5,6-dichloro-4-(3-(2,2-dimethyl-4-((4-(oxetan-3-yl)piperazin-1-yl)methyl)piperidin-1-yl)-5-methyl-1-(2-azaspiro[3.3]heptan-6-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1H-indazole (Step 4, 9.36 mmol) in CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 (62.5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT under argon for 10 min and poured into a sat. aq. NaHCO.sub.3 solution. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was back-extracted with CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 (?3). The combined organic layers were washed with a sat. aq. NaHCO.sub.3 solution, dried (phase separator) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was dissolved in THF (90 mL) and LiOH (2 M, 23.4 mL, 46.8 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at RT for 1 h, then was poured into a sat. aq. NaHCO.sub.3 solution and extracted with EtOAc. The aqueous layer was then extracted with CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 (?2) and the combined organic layers were dried (phase separator) and concentrated. The residue was purified by normal phase chromatography (eluent: MeOH in CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 from 0 to 15%) to give fraction A containing the first eluting isomer and fraction B containing the second eluting isomer. Fraction B was purified again by reverse phase chromatography (eluent A: H.sub.2O+0.1% TFA, B: CH.sub.3CN, gradient: 10% to 100%, flow: 150 mL/min) to give after extraction with a sat. aq. solution of NaHCO.sub.3 and CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2, evaporation of volatils and lyophilization from a mixture of CH.sub.3CN and water, Example 243b as the second eluting isomer (white solid): .sup.1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d.sub.6) ? 13.2 (s, 1H), 7.79 (s, 1H), 7.63 (s, 1H), 6.31 (m, 1H), 6.10 (m, 1H), 5.67 (m, 1H), 4.76 (m, 1H), 4.50 (t, 2H), 4.39 (t, 2H), 4.34 (s, 1H), 4.29 (s, 1H), 4.05 (s, 1H), 4.00 (s, 1H), 3.34 (m, 1H), 3.17 (m, 1H), 2.79 (m, 1H), 2.78-2.63 (m, 4H), 2.36-2.12 (m, 8H), 2.01 (s, 3H), 1.96-1.89 (m, 2H), 1.76 (m, 1H), 1.53 (m, 1H), 1.34 (m, 1H), 1.12 (s, 3H), 0.72 (s, 1.5H), 0.70 (s, 1.5H), 0.72-0.66 (m, 1H), 0.60 (m, 1H). UPLC-MS-2e: Rt=3.86 min; MS m/z [M+H].sup.+ 681.3/683.3/685.3. Fraction A was purified again by normal phase chromatography (eluent: MeOH in CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 from 0 to 16%) to give after lyophilization (CH.sub.3CN/water), Example 243a as the first eluting isomer (white solid): UPLC-MS-2e: Rt=3.54 min; MS m/z [M+H].sup.+ 681.3/683.3/685.3.

[0869] Method-13a: similar to Method-13 except that Step 1 was performed in MeOH instead of ClCH.sub.2CH.sub.2Cl.

[0875] The following examples 244a to 320b were prepared using analogous methods to Method-13 from intermediates (in Step 1, 2 or 3) described in the intermediates synthesis section or commercially available. When the final separation of isomers is performed by preparative HPLC using acidic conditions the purified fractions were extracted with a sat. aq. NaHCO.sub.3 solution before lyophilization from a mixture of CH.sub.3CN/H.sub.2O to give the title compound as a free base.

Purification of Human KRasG12C 1-169, Biotinylated on the N-Terminus

[1502] Human KRASG12C (UniProtKB: P01116) amino acids M1-K169 were expressed from plasmid pCZ239 (SEQ ID NO: 1) in E. coli BL21 (DE3) in the presence of a plasmid encoding biotin-[acetyl-CoA-carboxylase] ligase BirA (NCBI Reference Sequence: NP_418404.1, aa 1-321, full length) in Luria-Bertani (LB) medium-supplemented with 25 ?g/ml kanamycin, 34 ?g/ml chloramphenicol, 135 ?M biotin and 1 mM isopropyl ?-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside overnight at 18? C. Cells were harvested by centrifugation and frozen at ?80? C. until further processing. Cells were thawed and resuspended in Buffer A (20 mM Tris-HCl pH8, 500 mM NaCl, 5 mM imidazole, 2 mM TCEP, 10% glycerol) supplemented with 1 tablet protease inhibitor/50 ml buffer (Complete EDTA free, Roche) and 15 ?l Turbonuclease (90% purity, 50KUN, ?200,000 units/mL, Sigma) and incubated for 20 min at 4? C. The cells were lysed by 4 passages through an Avestin Emulsiflex at about 20000 psi and insoluble debris removed by centrifugation and filtered through a 0.45 ?m Durapore membrane (Millipore). Immobilized metal affinity chromatography was performed with a HisTrap HP 5 mL column (GE) with Buffer A and eluted with a linear gradient over 10 column volumes of Buffer A substituted with 200 mM imidazole. Eluted protein fractions were analyzed by Novex NuPage 4-12% PAGE. The affinity tag was removed by HRV3C protease cleavage (HRV3C protease produced in-house but also available commercially) during dialysis against Buffer A for 18 h at 4? C. and capturing by a reverse IMAC purification on a HisTrap HP 5 mL column. The protein in the flow through was subjected to a final polishing step on a HiLoad 16/60 Superdex 200 prep grade size-exclusion column pre-equilibrated with SEC-buffer (20 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl.sub.2, 1 ?M GDP). Positive fractions were determined by PAGE (Novex NuPage 4-12% BisTris) analysis. The correct mass was determined by RP (Reverse Phase) LC-MS, and indicated complete biotinylation of the protein.

Then, the product was extracted with a Phenomenex StrataX cartridge (33 ?m Polymeric Reversed Phase, 100 mg, 3 mL; 8B-S100-EB) which was eluted with 5 mL of ethanol. The extracted product contained the title compound with an activity of 2.61 GBq and a radiochemical purity of >99%. The molar activity was determined to be 2.12 TBq/mmol.

In Vitro Biochemical Quantification of Covalent Modification of KRASG12C

[1514] A scintillation proximity assay (SPA) was used to determine the potency of the compounds.

[1515] This assay measures the ability of the test compound to compete with the radiolabeled covalent probe for binding to and covalently modify KRASG12C.

[1516] The signal to be measured is generated by binding of an isotopic dilution of the covalent radio-ligand [[acrylamide-2,3-.sup.3H.sub.2]N-(3-fluoro-4-(2-methyl-3-(5-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-1-yl)phenyl)acrylamide (Compound B) (2.12 TBq/mmol) and its non-labeled analog [N-(3-fluoro-4-(2-methyl-3-(5-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-1-yl)phenyl)acrylamide (Compound A) to KRasG12C (M1-K169, biotinylated on the N-terminus) which is bound to SPA beads via biotin-streptavidin coupling. (see above for synthesis of Compound A and Compound B). A serial dilution of the compounds to be tested is mixed with a fixed concentration of the radiolabeled covalent probe before incubation with KRASG12C:GDP as described below. KRASG12C can either be bound by the radiolabeled covalent probe (Compound B), resulting in light being emitted from the beads, or bound by covalent test compound preventing signal generation.

[1517] Assays were run using 384-well plates (781207/Greiner) in which one column was designated as the high signal (no inhibition) control, and contained DMSO with no test compound, and another column was designated as the low signal control (maximal inhibition), and contained no protein. Serial dilutions of compounds to be tested were added to the assay plate (resulting in duplicate 11-point dose response with semi-log compound dilutions from 50 ?M to 0.5 nM or from 5 ?M to 0.05 nM for the most potent compounds). A 1/20 isotopic dilution of labeled (Compound B) and non-labeled covalent (Compound A) probe was prepared and added to all wells on the plate. The reaction was started by addition of KRasG12C (M1-K169, biotinylated on the N-terminus) to the compounds and incubated for 2 hours with continuous agitation allowing for full modification of KRasG12C with probe or test compounds. Final concentrations in an assay volume of 40 ?L were 10 nM KRasG12C, 25 nM radio-ligand and 475 nM unlabelled ligand. The assay buffer contained 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5 (Invitrogen), 150 mM NaCl (Sigma Aldrich), 0.1 mM MgCl.sub.2 (Sigma Aldrich), and 0.01% Tween-20 (Sigma Aldrich). Following addition of 50 ?L of a 400 ?g/mL suspension of streptavidin-coated YSi beads (Perkin Elmer), plates were incubated for a further 30 min with continuous agitation before reading the plates on a scintillation counter (Topcount NXT 384 (Packard).

[1518] Evaluation was carried out using assay data analysis software (such as the standard Novartis in-house Helios software application, Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research, unpublished) using the methods described in Formenko et al., Robust Regression for high-throughput screening, Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2006, 82, 31-37. Following normalization of activity values for the wells to % inhibition (% inhibition=[(high control?sample)/(high control?low control)]?100), IC.sub.50 fitting was carried out from the duplicate determinations present on each plate according to Formenko et al., 2006.

[1519] Evaluation can also be carried out using commercially available software which is designed to derive IC.sub.50 values using 4-parameter fits (e.g. GraphPad Prism, XL fit).

[1520] Titration of the non-labelled version of the probe, Compound A, in this assay resulted in an IC.sub.50 of 0.5 ?M. IC.sub.50 values for examples 1 to 94 are tabulated in Table 2.

[1521] Note: Endpoint IC.sub.50 values generated in this way could in principle be used to derive second order rate constants for the covalent binders in agreement with a method described by Miyahisa et al. 2015, Rapid Determination of the Specificity Constant of Irreversible Inhibitors (k.sub.inact/K.sub.I) by Means of an Endpoint Competition Assay, Angew. Chem, Int, Ed. Engl, 2015 Nov. 16; 54(47):14099-14102).

[1522] Following this, rate constants can be derived applying the equation (kinact/KI)inhibitor=(kinact/KI)probe?[probe]/IC50 using 0.5 ?M as [probe]. (k.sub.inact/K.sub.I)probe, the second order rate constant for modification of KRasG12C by this probe was internally determined to ?5,000 M-1*s-1 for the non-labeled ligand [N-(3-fluoro-4-(2-methyl-3-(5-methyl-1H-indazol-4-yl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-1-yl)phenyl)acrylamide (Compound A) using an MS-based assay (assessing % modification for a range of compound concentrations and time points).
